2016 Map of Wakita NE

About this map

The borderlands between Kansas and Oklahoma come into focus in this 2016 survey, centered on the intersection of Stateline Rd and the northern reaches of Sumner and Grant counties. This prairie landscape is defined by the winding drainages of Osage Cr and Pond Cr, which carve subtle topography through the expansive grid of section roads. The map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural region where local history is anchored by the Springdale Cem and a network of arterial routes such as Renfrow Rd and Wakita Rd. Named for local families and landmarks, roads like McClain Rd, Noble Rd, and Kiowa Rd trace the settlement patterns and property lines established generations ago. This cartography serves as a precise guide for those tracing family roots in this rural corridor, illustrating the persistent structure of the land even as small-town density shifted elsewhere.
